a. Apply a force of 50 N right to the box.  Describe the motion of the box using physics terms (i.e. velocity, acceleration, displacement). Refer to the speedometer in your answer. !

b.  Reset the scenario (don’t forget to check force, speed again). Apply a force of 50 N to the right for about 5 seconds then reduce the applied force to zero (the man should stop pushing).  Don’t reset the scenario.

Describe the motion of the box. Refer to the speedometer in your answer.

c.  Apply a force of 50N to the left. Describe the motion of the box.

d.  Explain the exact steps needed to make the box come to a stop.

Summary !

Newton’s First Law of Motion States “An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.”   Explain how your observations in a - d support this Law.!
